It was a little spooky. . .

I want to point out that I have big windows on the front of my house, with no blinds. I have lots of little solar lights in the yard as well. There is a large light near a utility substation about a block away, so we have lots of shadows. I was sitting in my chair with no lights on in the house, and Iwas talking on the phone with my daughter. I kept hearing strange noises. I saw shadows, but was not sure if it was something I was causing. On my plant shelf I noticed what I thought was maybe a stray cat, looking in the window. I was pretty certain Bruno was inside. I knew Pedro was, but to double check I turned on the porch light and opened the door. Three mid sized raccoons gave me "the look" then turned around and moseyed off. I think that they were trying to eat my amaryllis bulbs I have in a planter. I just put it outside recently. Tomorrow it will come back in. I had not seen raccoons in town here, only dead on the highway. I knew they were there, though, as people complain of them eating their corn.
